About Me

Current Mission: TRAVEL from Vancouver to Ushuaia!

I have been travelling and working for the last 5 years in Europe, Africa, Australia, South East Asia, New Zealand, Pacific Islands, Japan and United Arab Emirates and I have gained a lot. I have learnt how to use verbal and no verbal communication to overcome language barriers; developed negotiation skills through daily contact with sellers in markets and vendors throughout Asia and Pacific Islands; learned how to adapt to unexpected situations and make new plans due to periodic travel mishaps and unexpected events; developed budgeting and planning skills by organizing and financing my travel around the world.

All these experiences brought me to enforce my communication skills and my sense of adventure, helping me growing and collecting unforgettable memories, learning so much but still willing to learn as much.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There is no better way to travel than sharing a place with its local community.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking to the highest shelter in Europe: Capanna Margherita.

Countless shelters, refuges and bivouacs populate the alps. The highest shelter in Europe is Capanna Margherita, at the Top of Gnifetti Peak (4554 m) in the Monte Rosa Mountain Massive. Here there are one the largest glaciares mass of Europe. Hiking there is not particularly difficult: the path is not particularly steep even though a mountain equipment is required: harness, rope and crampons.
If you have the chance to go you simply cannot miss this place!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share my time with people learning everyday something new.
